PHOTOS, VIDEO: Dance Along With Mickey’s Happy Holidays Cavalcade at Disney California Adventure

Dance along with Mickey and his friends during Festival of the Holidays. Mickey’s Happy Holidays Cavalcade takes place at Disney California Adventure for the 2026 Christmas season.

Watch our POV video below:

The cavalcade takes place at select times each day throughout the holiday season, which runs through January 6, 2027. Performance times may vary, but are typically at 11:15 a.m., 12:50 p.m., and 3:00 p.m.

This cavalcade doesn’t have any floats, but characters, performers, and the Holiday Toy Drummers do walk and dance.

It travels from the gate at Avengers Campus and down Hollywood Blvd. where it stops to perform before travelling back to Avengers Campus. They perform to an original “Mickey’s Happy Holidays” theme song.

Performers and Holiday Toy Drummers lead the cavalcade. Mickey and Minnie are next, followed by Goofy, Clarabelle, and Pluto, all dressed in casual (and colorful) holiday outfits.

Last year, Chip ‘n’ Dale were absent for the cavalcade, but they have returned in 2026.

Pixar characters—including Joy, Mr. and Mrs. Incredible, Frozone, Woody, Jessie, and Bo Peep—bring up the rear, wearing festive accessories like scarves and Santa hats.
